I tried on another device. It is all not such a big problem :)
Though PilBox cannot initialize with that faulty file, you can just fix it, and

No. PilBox (and PicoLisp in general) caches CSS files for 24 hours.

Now I understand the problem!
"App.l" has three garbage bytes in the beginning;

The cache needs to cleared for a new style to take effect. Is that a bug?

If I replace all the old parts in my PC with new ones, will it turn into a

Oops! I meant to say that it only appears in (global) lib.css.

I've attached it. Maybe you will see something. I used termux-share to load
hello.zip and then edited that into the test app. The result works fine.

When PilBox starts up, it checks the file "Version". If this file does not exist

No joy: pty never connects, termux-share times out with a "PilBox is not
responding" toast, and adb doesn't give access to system files. Your detailed
instructions for replacing App.l, for all that it didn't work, were very
helpful. I would have had to find the url, then unpacked everything to

Thanks! I'll try that in the morning. A related question:
Would it have been ok to just create the test directory (!mkdir test), copy
App.l into it, and add PIL-test? I would find that simpler than the zip then
share dance.
